4m(Verse 1)
Remember back then? You couldn't stand me
Before way back 2024, things were just... heavy
But then I see you on a bench in the hall
You’re smiling at me, ready to break the wall
I had to finish my task and told you "wait a sec"
But that hug afterward? Man, it hit like a wreck
It was so warm, so different—I didn't want to let go
Yeah, I’m wide awake, feeling every move you make.
(Chorus)
Now I’m jealous when they get too close to you
I’m updating you on everything I do
We’re sitting on the taxi, hands locked tight
Hiding under your jacket, pretending it’s night
Yeah, we’re "asleep," but I’m wide awake
Feeling every single move that you make.
(Verse 2)
It started raining, and you handed me your umbrella
Told me to give it to him—that "other" fella
But we stayed talking, just venting 'bout life
Sharing our stories and the internal strife
You told me you liked girls, and I said "me too"
(I’d lied about it once, but I couldn't lie to you)
Then you disappeared for three days, went totally ghost
Now I’m wide awake, and I’m updating you on everything I do.
(Chorus)
Now I’m jealous when they get too close to you
I’m updating you on everything I do
We’re sitting on the taxi, hands locked tight
Hiding under your jacket, pretending it’s night
Yeah, we’re "asleep," but I’m wide awake
Feeling every single move that you make.
(Verse 3)
We got to the room, and you called my bluff
"Tell me what you have to say," but I’m not that tough
I couldn't say the words, I didn't know how to act
So I handed you my name tag—a weird move, in fact
You just left it on the bed. You didn't get the clue
So I grabbed a pen and wrote: "I like you"
I even wrote your full name: Atasha Ashley
I’m wide awake, hands locked tight, honestly.
(Chorus)
Now I’m jealous when they get too close to you
I’m updating you on everything I do
We’re sitting on the taxi, hands locked tight
Hiding under your jacket, pretending it’s night
Yeah, we’re "asleep," but I’m wide awake
Feeling every single move that you make.
(Bridge)
You didn't see it till the next day, in a photo you sent
You were upset. I was quiet. I didn't know what I meant
But now look at us—October came and went
And every single second since then is well spent
You’re my first girlfriend, the love of my life
I’m ready for the struggle, I’m ready for the strife.
(Chorus)
Now I’m jealous when they get too close to you
I’m updating you on everything I do
We’re sitting on the taxi, hands locked tight
Hiding under your jacket, pretending it’s night
Yeah, we’re "asleep," but I’m wide awake
Feeling every single move that you make.
(Outro)
I don’t care what they say or what the family thinks
I’m ignoring the whispers and the judgmental blinks
You’re my comfort, my happy, my favorite person
If I’m stuck with you, then I’m never gonna worsen
Just you and me, Ashley.
Forever, actually.
I’m wide awake.
I'm wide awake.
